Investigating the Anti-Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) & Anti-inflammatory Effect of Chloroquine...
HIV InfectionsSummary: Chloroquine is a medication that in laboratory settings has significant anti-HIV effects in HIV infected T-cells. Chloroquine has been used safely for over 60 years for malaria treatment and prevention, and it also has significant anti-inflammatory effects. No formal study of chloroquine has been performed in people with HIV infection. Chloroquine is used worldwide and is quite inexpensive outside of the United States. If shown to be effective, chloroquine could be a very important tool worldwide in delaying HIV disease progression which would extend the time period without needing anti-retroviral therapy. In countries where anti-retroviral therapy is not available, this could be very helpful. This is an 8 week trial study requiring 3 study visits. Participants will be ask to take a once a day study medication (chloroquine or placebo) for 8 weeks and have three blood draws for CD4 counts, HIV viral loads, and other research tests. The visits are at study enrollment, 4 weeks, and 8 weeks.

The Safety and Effectiveness of Didanosine Plus Stavudine Plus Nevirapine Combined With MKC-442...
HIV InfectionsThe purpose of this study is to see if it is safe and effective to give a new anti-HIV drug combination to HIV-infected patients who have never taken nonnucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NNRTIs) and who have failed to respond to protease inhibitors (PIs). The drug combination will contain didanosine (ddI) plus stavudine (d4T) plus nevirapine (NVP) plus MKC-442. Hydroxyurea (HU) may be added.

Safety and Antiviral Study of ACH-126, 443 (Beta-L-Fd4C) in the Treatment of Adults With HIV Infection...
HIV InfectionsTo determine safety and efficacy of ACH-126,443 on the treatment of adults with HIV infection who have modestly detectable viral load while on stable triple combination antiretroviral therapy including 3TC.

A Study to Determine the Safety and Efficacy of Rilpivirine in Treatment-naive Indian Participants...
Human Immunodeficiency Virus InfectionsThe primary purpose of the study is to evaluate the efficacy of rilpivirine (RPV)-based regimen in human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) infected, antiretroviral (ARV) treatment-naive participants, as determined by the percentage of virologic responders defined as having HIV-1 ribonucleic acid (RNA) less than 400 copies/ milliliter (mL) at Week 24.

Serious Bacterial InfectionPhase 3 study to determine the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of aztreonam- avibactam (ATM- AVI) versus best available therapy (BAT) in the treatment of hospitalized adults with complicated intra-abdominal infections (cIAI), nosocomial pneumonia (NP) including hospital acquired pneumonia (HAP) and ventilator associated pneumonia (VAP), complicated urinary tract infections (cUTI), or bloodstream infections (BSI) due to metallo-β-lactamase (MBL)- producing Gram-negative bacteria.

A Study of RO7239958 to Evaluate Safety, Tolerability, Pharmacokinetics and Pharmacodynamics in...
Hepatitis B Virus InfectionThis study is designed to assess the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK) and pharmacodynamics (PD) of single and multiple ascending doses in healthy volunteers (HV) and participants diagnosed with chronic hepatitis B (CHB).

Fecal Microbiota Transplant for Primary CDI
Clostridium Difficile InfectionClostridium difficile infection (CDI) is one of the most urgent health threats in the U.S. associated with antibiotic use. After an initial episode, disease recurrence is high and relapses can occur in 20-30% of people treated with oral vancomycin. An antibiotic course can affect the gut microbiome for years, and patients with CDI have additional dysbiosis of their gut flora. Oral vancomycin perturbs the gut microbiome further. Restoration of the microbiome with Fecal Microbiota Transplant (FMT) has been proven a highly efficacious and cost-effective treatment for recurrent CDI. FMT has had very limited study for a primary episode of CDI to date because an endoscopic procedure was the recommended route of delivery. However, FMT is now available via frozen oral capsules and has been shown to be non-inferior to FMT via colonoscopy in randomized controlled trials. The investigators hypothesize that outcomes after a first episode of CDI can be improved if the microbiome is restored with oral FMT. It is further hypothesized that this will compensate for any additional microbiome perturbation caused by administration of oral vancomycin and decrease the likelihood of recurrence. Because the hypothesis is based on restoration of the microbiome, the investigators propose this proof-of-concept pilot study to examine whether FMT administered after oral vancomycin therapy for primary CDI restores microbiome diversity compared to patients who do not receive FMT. Because of the potential health benefits, this approach deserves further study. The results from this pilot study on the microbiome diversity as well as the surveys to be conducted about GI symptomatology (e.g., diarrhea, abdominal pain, bloating), CDI recurrence and healthcare utilization, would provide preliminary data to support a randomized controlled, multicenter clinical trial.

Grazoprevir/Elbasvir for Genotype 1b Chronic Hepatitis C After Liver or Kidney Transplantation
Chronic Hepatitis cLiver Transplant Infection1 moreGrazoprevir/elbasvir combination therapy is highly effective in the treatment of genotype 1b chronic hepatitis C, and the drug-drug interaction with central immunosuppressant, such as tacrolimus, should be manageable. The aim of this study is to assess the efficacy and tolerability of grazoprevir/elbasvir combination therapy in treating genotype 1b chronic hepatitis C after liver or kidney transplantation.

The INSPIRE-ASP UTI Trial
Urinary Tract Infection (UTI)The INSPIRE-ASP UTI trial is a cluster-randomized controlled trial of HCA hospitals comparing routine empiric antibiotic stewardship practices with real-time precision medicine computerized physician order entry smart prompts providing the probability that a non-critically ill adult admitted with UTI is infected with a resistant pathogen. Note: that enrolled "subjects" represents 59 individual HCA hospitals that have been randomized.

Anti-viral Effect of PC786 on RSV Infection on HSCT Recipients
Respiratory Syncytial Virus InfectionsThis study tests the effects of an experimental drug PC786 in people infected with Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV). PC786 may be useful in treating patients infected with RSV as it works by interfering with the way the virus multiplies. PC786 is an inhaled medicine. Participants will be treated with SoC treatment (e.g. oral ribavirin and/or IV immunoglobulin), half of the participants will receive PC786 in addition and half will receive a placebo treatment. The study will take place at multiple sites in UK and will include approximately 30 participants. The maximum study duration will be about 4 weeks.
